Can a marriage examination detect cervical erosion?

Marriage is a major event in life, and young couples must undergo a strict pre-marital physical examination before marriage. The pre-marital physical examination mainly conducts a detailed examination of both parties' family medical history, personal medical history, and whether they have mental illness to ensure their future daily life. Basic premarital examinations include kidney function and liver function tests, and genital examinations mainly check whether the sexual organs of both parties are normal. So, can a pre-marital physical examination detect cervical erosion?

1. Can cervical erosion be detected during premarital examination?

For women who have never had sex, it is usually not easy to do a gynecological examination during the premarital checkup, so it is impossible to find out whether there is cervical erosion at this time. However, for women who have already had sexual life, they usually have a routine physical examination of secretions and a gynecological examination during the premarital check-up, so if there is cervical erosion, it can be detected. Since cervical erosion refers to erosion-like changes in the cervix, the doctor will use a dilator to dilate the vagina and reveal the cervix when taking secretions, so that the naked eye can see whether there is cervical erosion.
